Marie Antoinette or not, contemporary women are all queens of unique and singular beauty, whatever their style of dress.<\/h6>\n\n\n\n
\n

… In the small autumn\/winter 2024-2025 Haute Couture collection “The Last Queen”, which I presented at the Grevin Museum at the end of June, I tried to shed light on the role of Marie Antoinette in fashion history. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The models, interpreted in a modern way in the spirit of her personality, reflect the different styles I like to see in contemporary women. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two romantic dresses in canary yellow and soft pinks, which seem to have come from the 18th century, decorated with delicate Versailles embroidery and beautiful handmade flowers, underline the versatility of the queen’s codes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My signature jackets, perfectly cut and this time luxuriously embroidered, are a reminder that she was the first to dare to incorporate menswear elements into her wardrobe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sleeves of a black, rock-style dress in sheer tulle and the matching leggings were embroidered with tattoos that wittily interpreted some of the details of Marie Antoinette’s legend: the much-criticised predilection for the appearance of a demure “shepherdess” or the white cakes that were never made, the sincere love for a husband, a son\u2026”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fourni\u00e9 dressed her in armour, made of sturdy, high-quality leather, usually used for handbags, covered by a magnificent cloak with black crystal embroidery, and her head adorned with a never-before seen leather crown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this way, he emphasised the power and growing influence of contemporary women. For the designer, they are all queens of a unique, distinctive beauty, whatever their style of dress.<\/p>\nELLE LITHUANIA<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
